Management via bricks..
Does your Company have a problem in recruiting the
right person for the
right Job? If yes, try this simple experiment.
Put around 100 bricks in some particular order in a
closed room with an
open window. Then send 2-3 candidates into the
room and close it from
outside. Leave them alone and come back after 6
hours, and then analyze
the situation:
If they are counting and recounting the number of
bricks - PUT THEM IN
ACCOUNTS DEPT.
If they have messed up the whole place with the
bricks - PUT THEM IN
ENGINEERING
If they are arranging the bricks in some other order -
PUT THEM IN
PLANNING.
If they are throwing the bricks at each other - PUT
THEM IN OPERATIONS.
If they are sleeping - PUT THEM IN SECURITY.
If they have broken the bricks into pieces - PUT
THEM IN INFORMATION
TECHNOLOGY.
If they are sitting idle - PUT THEM IN HUMAN
RESOURCE DEPT.
If they have thrown the bricks out of the window -
PUT THEM IN THE
MATERIALS DEPT.
If they are clinging onto the bricks - PUT THEM IN
TREASURY.
If they say they have tried different combinations, yet
not a brick has
moved - PUT THEM IN SALES.
If they have already left for the day - PUT THEM IN
MARKETING.
If they are staring out of the window - PUT THEM IN
STRATEGIC PLANNING
AND last but not least....
If they are talking to each other and not a single brick
has been moved -
PUT THEM IN TOP MANAGEMENT.
